Why This Hot & Fit 100 Issue Means More Than Ever
Every magazine has a moment.
This one has twenty years behind it.
The Winter 2026 Hot & Fit 100 Issue of Inside Fitness Magazine isn’t just another edition — it’s a milestone. It marks 20 years of Inside Fitness and the 17th annual Hot & Fit 100, two journeys that have grown side by side with the Canadian fitness community.
When we launched Inside Fitness back in 2006, the goal was simple: tell better fitness stories. Not hype. Not trends. Real people. Real work. Real progress. Two decades later, that mission hasn’t changed — but the impact has multiplied.
This special issue celebrates the women who represent what modern fitness actually looks like in Canada: discipline, resilience, balance, confidence, and purpose. The Hot & Fit 100 has never been about perfection. It’s about showing up, evolving, and owning your strength — at every stage of life.
Meet the 17th Annual Winner: Jac Cordeiro
This year’s cover and overall winner, Jac Cordeiro, embodies everything this issue stands for. A mother, entrepreneur, fitness professional, and role model, Jac’s story is one of longevity, reinvention, and purpose-built strength. Her journey is a reminder that fitness doesn’t peak — it evolves. And when it’s built with intention, it lasts.
More Than a Photoshoot — A Platform
Inside this issue, you’ll find:
-
The full Hot & Fit 100, featuring inspiring women from across Canada
-
Editorial features and interviews that go beyond aesthetics
-
Science-backed content covering health, nutrition, and mindset
-
A look back at 20 years of Inside Fitness — the people, moments, and movement that built it
For many women featured in Hot & Fit over the years, this wasn’t just a moment in front of the camera — it was a turning point. Careers were launched. Confidence was rebuilt. New chapters began. That’s the power of being seen.
A Thank You to the Community
No magazine lasts twenty years without its community. This issue is a thank-you to the readers, athletes, photographers, partners, and supporters who believed in Inside Fitness from day one — and to those discovering it now.
This isn’t nostalgia.
It’s momentum.
